Are you a champion Database Engineer? Help us boost the SEON rocketship as we assemble our super team of fraud-fighting heroes. 🚀
The Product and Software engineering department drives, oversees, coordinates, and executes the entire lifecycle of the product development. It’s a huge job, which is why we break it down into objectives and task-oriented initiatives. That involves delegating to a bunch of teams, including the Admin, Scoring, Data Enrichment, AI, Growth, Onboarding, QA, DevOps, and more – all collaborating to build the best anti-fraud tool possible.
Fraud prevention is built on collecting and securing data, and SEON is taking that approach to the next level. The Database Team focuses on designing, maintaining, and optimizing PostgreSQL databases, with a strong focus on testing and performance. It’s pretty hands-on and cross-functional, because we’re scaling fast, and adding new features all the time. You’ll join a small core team, part of the larger Product Development department.

- Design and maintain databases, increase database performance, and troubleshoot database functionality issues.
- Support, monitor and maintain databases (PostgreSQL on AWS RDS) with TBs of data
- Troubleshoot query performance issues related to our applications on large datasets
- Optimize data structure and manage structural changes, migration processes
- Lend support to development teams as necessary during design, development and delivery to ensure solid, scalable, robust solutions
- Accurately assess the risks associated with each solution design
- Support the development of team members in order to use our database resources efficiently
What you bring:
- Strong design and development experience with PostgreSQL (v12+)
- Experience with database management on AWS (RDS)
- Thorough working knowledge of the design and database development processes, methodologies
- Strong database setup, configuration, maintenance/support, troubleshooting skills, and experience with different database engines
- Experience in developing and executing a data solution implementation plan
What we offer:
- Competitive salary package
- Hybrid remote work model
- Private health insurance covered by Medicover
- Flexible core hours and one hour for lunchtime comped
- 3 extra Wellness Days
- Top-notch office in central Budapest with free Club Mate, fruits, and coffee
- Complimentary weekly English courses
- AYCM membership
- An immediate impact on a smart, growing, multi-cultural team
- Option to enroll in development courses that can add to your skillset
- Your chance to join the good fight by helping stop fraudsters worldwide!
